The Cooper Green Parking Deck is a 3-story public parking deck located at 1401–1433 6th Avenue South adjacent to Cooper Green Hospital in the Birmingham Medical District. It was built in 1974 in conjunction with Cooper Green Hospital and contains 915 parking spaces. It is owned by Jefferson County and operated by the Birmingham Parking Authority.
The deck covers the entire Block 182 bounded by 6th and 7th Avenue South and by 14th and 15th Street South, though 15th Street is closed between the parking deck and former hospital building.
In August 2022 UAB proposed to build a 405,000 square-foot, 1,200-space parking parking deck on the site of the Cooper Green Deck. The projected cost of the project is $32 million.
